AUDI had already 1985 a Mittelmotor Quattro finished, a test should in the Steiermark in the forests of a monastery take place. Most secretly, the abbott had given its Okay.
But on the first day the Mittelmotor Quattro was already photographed and was quickly in the newspaper. That cost by the way indirectly the life to an engineer. It had unbelievably engaged itself in the project. When the photos of the new car appeared, it got extreme annoyance. It died a little later at a cardiac infarct.
